Peerless Tobacco Works, Rochester, IV. Y. 
From Seth Green, Supt. A. Y. State Fisheries. 
I find Vanity Fair to be the best article of tobacco 
adapted to the wants of the sportsman, Have used 
your tobaccos for many yea.s, and know them all to 
be first-class. 
For Sportsmen. 
A trusty friend, in weariness or trouble: a solid re¬ 
source in Winter and rongh weather, is a sweet pipe 
with Vanity Frir. Best dealers have it. 
From A. B. Lambert on, Rochester. 
Having smoked your tobacco. Vanity Fair, by the 
camp fire and by the hearth, I believe it in point of 
fragrance and taste superior to all brands kuown to 
me. Being in search of a tobacco that would not fire 
the tongue and mouth, I was made acquainted with 
your Vanity Fair, and found it to be the ne plus ultra 
of natural leaf. 
For Cigarettes. 
A cigarette is an interlude to the serious habit; a 
graceful make-believe for spare hours. For cigar¬ 
ettes Vanity Fair has no equal. Best dealers have it. 
From Forest and Stream, A. Y. 
Wc have received rrom Messrs. Kimball & Co., of 
Rochester, some choice specimens of their celebrated 
Vanity Fair tobacco in neat metal caeca holding a 
pound each; and, aftermost thorough trial, do not 
hesitate to concede to it all the good qualities which 
its manufacturers claim for It. It is a most superior 
article, aud a great comfort to discriminating 
smokers.
